We all met at grandma's house today to celebrate my niece turning 15! Wow, where did the years go?? She's always been this semi-quiet, smiling little girl, only now a lot taller. She wasn't aware that she would take photos today, but I had to document her new year…before Sweet 16! Enjoy. Happy birthday Amber; love you lots!!!

And most importantly, first time mommy! Baby AJ is soon to make the grandest appearance. Here are a few images from my session with Baby AJ's mommy. Enjoy!

Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure | Birmingham

I walked in my first Race for the Cure 5K on yesterday. I remember working last year and watching the participants celebrate a cause that's very dear to my heart. I remember learning that my grandmother had been diagnosed with breast cancer. She said it was a rare form of cancer as her lump grew on the outside of her breast. I can't really say that it was a trying time for us because my grandmother is such a fighter. Her strength far surpassed what would have brought many down. Now, 21 years later, she is still cancer free. A true survivor. So yesterday, I walked in honor of her. Of course I had Black Beauty (my Nikon) in tow, however, since I walked I didn't get as many images as I had hoped. Some images were captured with my iPhone as well. Here are a few moments from my fun day!

Karima | Birmingham Child Photographer

Cutie alert! Karima is just the cutest kid ever! She is so full of life and has such an imaginative mind. And she adores her daddy! We had so much fun playing pretend castle today. I can't imagine how quickly she must have gone to sleep afterwards because she was full of energy. Here are a few images from our session.

The Little Princess | Birmingham Child Photographer

Today, I had the chance to hang out with the little princess, and that I mean literally. Princess has a birthday coming up and what better way to celebrate than a photo session! She is a little lady that knows what she wants, and quite the little pose assistant. Thanks Carman for allowing me to document her new year! Enjoy a few photos from our session.
